Introducing Flensburg

The German city of Flensburg lies on the northern border with Denmark, and is characterized by a mixture of cultures. Founded by Danish settlers in the 13th Century, there were later joined by German merchants. The city became one of the most powerful trading towns on the Baltic sea. Flensburg eventually ended under German control only during the second half of the 19th century. The city was at that time importing Rum from the West Indies and this commercial past survives in one last Rum distillery which is still active today. The merchant past of Flensburg finds also an expression in different museums on the subjects of trade, sailing and shipbuilding.
